Abstract

Let \ Z(t), t≥ 0\ be a critical Bellman-Harris branching process with finite variance for the offspring size of particles. Assuming that 0<Z(t)≤ φ(t), where either φ(t)=o(t) as t→ ∞ or φ(t)=at, a>0, we study the structure of the process % \ Z(s,t),0≤ s≤ t\ , where Z(s,t) is the number of particles in the process at moment s in the initial process which either survive up to moment t or have a positive offspring number at this moment.
